The completion at last (poem)
We were once only the embryo, implanted with faith
Cultivated from ideas, some old - and some new
Nourished with a desire - to seek our fate
Beginning to flourish - from dreams, left - from the cool
Morning dew-
If we survive the drought in the summer, of prejudice
And hate,
Where lack of love - threatens to cut us down, - like an
Unwanted weed
Providing winter’s cold heart, - doesn’t uproot us in war,
Only to fill - it’s own selfish plate.
Then perhaps- the following season, will bring us the
Promise -we so desperately need
For spring may bring us warm hearts, to expose our
Unstable petals, to a whole new light,
With April’s tears of remorse, for discrimination, and
Ignorance, which, created such gloom
Replenished with hope - we’ll continue to grow - there’s
No stopping us now, for now, - it’s all done right.
From here it unfolds, - the completion at last, for all of
God’s care, will soon be in full bloom
